As the afternoon classes began, Ye Yingluo led all the students straight to the outdoor field.

Her expression was unusually grim, because she had only learned at noon what had happened in Class Five.

Though she had never heard of the Sun Martial Soul, the power it had displayed had deeply shocked her.

After all, it was perfectly normal for a Two-Ring Soul Master to defeat a One-Ring Soul Master.

But even under normal circumstances, it was difficult for a Two-Ring Soul Master to severely injure a One-Ring Soul Master in a single move.

In other words, the young man named Yun Xiao possessed destructive power that surpassed the Two-Ring level.

Though Ye Yingluo did not care all that much, she still wanted to first select the students who would participate in the tournament.

Watching the gathered students, Ye Yingluo stepped into their midst and swept her gaze around.

"Today, we'll select the students for the Class Promotion Tournament. The three strongest members of our class will defend the ring."

"Chen Ye, Wang Jinxi, Zhang Ziyang, Wei Xiaofeng—you four are the Two-Ring powerhouses of our class. Is there any One-Ring student who wants to come up and give it a try?" Ye Yingluo asked as she looked around.

Not a single student below dared to nod.

Most of them had made it here because they possessed some talent, but their strength had not reached the Two-Ring level. Some were even still far behind it.

Naturally, no one would step up just to get beaten. After looking around and confirming that nobody intended to come forward, Ye Yingluo looked directly at the four students.

The four of them shared a dormitory, and Ye Yingluo had originally thought they would yield to one another a little.

Yet the other three did not hesitate at all. All three pairs of eyes turned toward Chen Ye, clearly waiting for him to make the decision.

Chen Ye was not surprised by Wei Xiaofeng's gaze. After all, he had beaten the boy badly enough that he probably still had psychological scars.

But when he saw Zhang Ziyang and Wang Jinxi looking at him as well, Chen Ye's mouth twitched.

This was no fun. He still wanted to try out the Dark Phoenix Martial Soul.

"How about this? The three of you fight me alone, and I'll see what you're capable of."

"The two strongest can team up with me."

Chen Ye spoke casually, but the surrounding students all wore expressions of surprise upon hearing him.

Chen Ye's Soul Power might have reached level 27, but against three students of the same level, they did not think his odds of winning were very high.

After Wang Jinxi and Zhang Ziyang exchanged a glance, a hint of fighting spirit appeared in both their eyes.

Neither of them was Chen Ye's match alone, but together, they had a greatest trump card they had kept hidden and never used.

They had originally planned to save it for the later matches and use it only at a critical moment.

But if they could make Chen Ye suffer a major loss this time, that did not sound bad either.

The two exchanged another glance, both wearing wicked smiles they could not conceal.

What they did not know was that Chen Ye wore the same wicked smile as he looked at them.

Leaving aside the fact that he was already cheating, with his current power, peering into their thoughts was as easy as playing around.

Still, he pretended not to know. Seeing that Ye Yingluo had no reaction, Wei Xiaofeng stepped forward.

Behind him, Wang Jinxi and Zhang Ziyang stood ready as well.

Looking at the three, Ye Yingluo raised a hand slightly and announced the start of the match.

Wang Jinxi suddenly took a large step forward, and the Bone Dragon King abruptly appeared behind him.

As his first Soul Ring lit up, his palm transformed into a bone claw in an instant.

Dark power spread across the terrifying bone claw before it suddenly slammed toward Chen Ye.

At the same time, Zhang Ziyang swiftly moved closer to Wang Jinxi and concealed himself behind him.

Behind Zhang Ziyang, the Dark Phantom Eagle Martial Soul appeared as well.

As his second soul skill lit up, vast clouds of black mist surged forth, completely concealing both him and Wang Jinxi.

Meanwhile, Wei Xiaofeng, who had been standing still the entire time, flashed a vicious look in his eyes.

He stepped forward, following behind the other two.

Though the three had never coordinated before, their teamwork this time was unexpectedly seamless—or rather, Zhang Ziyang and Wang Jinxi were sufficiently in sync.

Watching the three rapidly approach him, Chen Ye did not really care.

He did not use the authority of the Dragon of Imagination to toy with them directly, since that would have been too boring.

As Chen Ye took a step forward, three purple Soul Rings abruptly descended around him, and the pressure of a Three-Ring Soul Master instantly spread outward.

When the previously excited students saw the three Soul Rings around Chen Ye, they abruptly fell silent.

Inside the black mist, Wang Jinxi and Zhang Ziyang also wore looks of astonishment.

But before they could react, Chen Ye's second Soul Ring suddenly lit up.

A dazzling white radiance abruptly appeared behind him, accompanied by the cry of a phoenix.

Zhang Ziyang's second soul skill, Dark Mist, was directly dispersed. At the same time, the dark power and toxins carried by Wang Jinxi's first soul skill, Bone Dragon Claw, also faded away.

Chen Ye's move had come too suddenly, and the two had already reached his side.

A trace of determination appeared on Wang Jinxi's face. Though he had lost the dark attribute and corrosive effect, his bone claw still came crashing down.

Chen Ye looked at him and casually raised his hand, colliding head-on with Wang Jinxi's bone claw.

When their palms clashed, Wang Jinxi possessed immense strength due to his dragon-type Martial Soul, but Chen Ye was a Three-Ring Soul Master even without using any Martial Soul.

As their palms pressed against each other, Chen Ye immediately raised his leg and kicked Wang Jinxi.

Wang Jinxi was sent flying by the kick. Behind him, Zhang Ziyang's first Soul Ring suddenly lit up.

Countless black feather needles tore through the air and rapidly shot toward Chen Ye.

Watching the feather needles fly toward him, Chen Ye's lips curled into a teasing smile. Then his second Soul Ring lit up once more.

After mastering the Sun Sequence, the second great authority it granted was called Purification.

This Purification could cleanse Abyssal filth, curses, and undead creatures.

As a blinding white light burst forth, everything hidden in the surroundings was revealed.

The power on the feather needles dissipated, and they immediately fell to the ground.

As the feather needles hit the ground, the Green Snake covering them also abruptly dispersed.

Wei Xiaofeng's expression turned somewhat ugly. He had hidden behind the other two earlier and, taking advantage of Zhang Ziyang's attack, directly added his own second soul skill to it.

One link after another, the three had coordinated almost perfectly, yet it seemed utterly useless against Chen Ye.

Chen Ye looked at the three with great interest, then took a step forward.

The young man's steps were steady, but as he raised his fist, scorching flames gathered in his hand.

A genuine smile appeared on Chen Ye's face. After all, it had been a long time since he had truly experienced the feeling of fists striking flesh.
